This is getting rediculas, and no Apple fast charging for your money either. If Apple continue to sell at these stupid inflated prices Samsung and Google will continue to follow suite causing a flagship price war.

A 7nm powered phone is awesome for sure but there are so many other aspects, which are very important as well. I'm don't buy any Samsung, LG, Huawei or Xiaomi because of their custom skin on top of the Android. I personally recommend you a close to Stock or a Stock Android Phone. If you're not younger than 14 and not older than 60 years old I think you'll be much happier with Stock or close to stock Android phones.

E D , 13 Sep 2018Errrr, so the XS Max costs $1,099 in the US and £1,099 in the UK. With today's rate for ... morewe in the UK should boycott the company for this reason alone not to mention they arent even worth £800 anyway.

I would laugh if it would be not true. You will pay like 1500 euros for top memory model iPhone Xs Max. I mean you can defend such a ridiculous prices even you die hard Apple fan. It is more insult to fans keeping them for granted.

Errrr, so the XS Max costs $1,099 in the US and £1,099 in the UK. With today's rate for the £/$ being 1.30 that means it is being sold in the US for the equivalent of £845 so as Apple have tried numerous times before, we in the UK are paying considerably more for the same product. Why?

Sohil Singhal, 12 Sep 2018What about the indian pricing?? You dont want to know because it will be way too expensive even the basic XR model itself.....Forget Apple and iPhones.....There are far better and at 1/10th price points there are better options like Honor Play available for the needs.

Was sick of Android's shitty app store and my OPPO R9S killing background apps and missing notifications. But you know what? You convinced me. I will wait for the 7nm Kirin 980 powered Huawei Mate 20 Pro instead. While you didn't have to be so rude about it, I thank you internet stranger.

Educate yourself, it is *NO* 120hz OLED, it is a totally normal OLED with 120hz *TOUCH-SENSING* kid, it is just a trap for not educated and blind people like you.
Let's don't get deep in crappy and outdated Hardware used in Apple devices but only to mention (3GB and 4GB RAM, still only 64GB, exactly the same crappy camera as last year, still terribly slow and unreliable FaceID as last year, I'm sure the exact small batteries of last year, but about 20% to 30% more expensive. to mention compare these Hardware with OnePlus6, Sony Xperia, Poco, Note9 and then compare the price as well).
btw, if you've ever opened an iPhone and did take a look what is inside of that, and if you are not a sheep, you could see all damn components inside of this junk is just a piece of cheap Chinese trash and not a premium or at least good Chinese components.
Read what I wrote, think if you have still some gray cells, then educate yourself, then come back to we discuss why many people hate Apple.

Price?
It's an organized loot. Seriously playing with sentiments of people.
The costing of these phones may not be more than $200. The only way to stop Apple from rising the prices is by simply stop buying iPhone.
I hope people open their eyes and get real about it. Mobile are no more a status symbol, gone are those days.
Initially, people used to look iPhone buyers with envy, now they laugh on them.
Shame on Apple.. Big Shame !!!!

These space images on the screen probably represent the phone's price, which is out of this world. I'm sure the new iPhones are good, but the prices are insane. You can get an amazing, very high-end Android phone for much less than that, and you have a lot of them to choose from.

Anonymous , 13 Sep 2018I believe you are beyond stupid to compare ford with ferrari. In Hyper and Super car section ... moreWhat do you mean iPhone isn't premium compared to Note 9? The Note 9 is basically just a slightly bigger Galaxy S9+ from 6 months ago just with a new stylus, whereas almost everything on the iPhone XS is either new or the first of its kind. First phone with 7nm chipset and stereo mic, new 120hz OLED screen, cameras and (likely) Gorilla Glass 6. I was actually going to buy the Note 9 until I saw these specs. Note 9 is old tech mate, this is cutting edge.

Geric.770, 13 Sep 2018I agree though.
This is the reason why Galaxy watches are rising on sales due to the fact tha... moreI kinda agree with you. Most users still want a fully customized watchfaces and longer battery life. The only reason why Apple Watch is highly popular is their deep integration with another iDevices and damn accurate sensors. Oh, and the brand prestige (at least in most countries, including mine)

The price. It's hard to justify their pricing nowadays. For the latest and greatest you could get a MacBook Air and for the top tier XS Max 512GB you'll get a maxed-out 12" MacBook or entry level 13" MacBook Pro.
I understand they need to offset the always increasing customized component and the top notch (pun intended) raw materials. But the price was very steep you could compare it to a vertical cliff.

On another note, the 1% people will get the chance to taste their XS Max "exclusivity" again because of that price. It's untouchable now for most of us hoi-polloi. For the XR? In some countries you'll be laughed because it's still entry level and that means you're not rich enough for their so-called inner circle. Talk about a broken society defined by the physical things.

For me? If I'll ever gonna buy an iDevice, I'll wait for next year until the price dropped and start hunting a pre-loved XR in Coral or a new soon to be launched iPad Pro. That makes the most sense to me as I only need that for my previous files locked in their system. For now, the Galaxy Note8 and Wacom Intuos tablet is enough for my content creation. ;)
